Lord LA`it'F.LLES orm•em; Jed some l'etitions front Sheffield and other places, against the Poor's Settlement lit I.—Laid on the t a lo e . Papers from the different Public Offices, previonsly moved ter, were presentel. The House wm•tit iota a Committee on the Negociahle Se .rurities' received,.and the Bill ordered , for a third reading to-mom row.

EMMERT-ES OF BANK NOTES. Sir.,l MACKIN rosu said, he had received from many pats of the kingdom a great number of communications for r'reeerniog fmmrgeries . of Bank Notes. Ile wished to suggest to the Right Hon. Gentleman opposite, that it would be very expedient to proceed to the llMOirmiiMl of the Commissioncrs as soon as possible, and to make their ;tpymintmetit gene t-411Y' known, in order that individnali might knoW where to address them This- would tend to satisfy the just and Eta sonahle anxiety of the public The CHANCELLOR of the EXCI - lEW7EIt , answered, that steps had already been tat co forthe_appointment of Coln missiotters, 'and he liaml no doubt every opportunity . would Ire taken of complying with the Learned Gent.lemaus tug g`e•tioth Sit M. W. RIDLEY reprehended 'a particular grievance on the public with respect to those forgeries. TI-e case on which the 'Grand Jury determined went simply at present on a Civil( of the flank saying that.a.note is forged. On -being asked how be knew this,, his answer was, that he could kite no opinion, as he• was sworn to secresy. Thus on no other • grounds were to many of nor, fel low•creat s brought. into a situation of life, or death. The Commissioners ()tight to have , tonic poteer of inquiring into this part of the subject. Hi:- wished also to know what was to he the number of the Coat ,missionkr.s; and - the amount of theim salaries ? - The CHANCELLORof the EXCHEQUER said, the num- het woold he from five to seven ; as to the salaries, although he could not say soeciffeal! what they would- he, he was sure Atte House would he of (minion that such Gentlemen could omit i.e expected to gise their time and labour without a proper 1-minim-ration. Mr RENNET wished to know whether it was not a fact. which had been -asserted, that the Bank had fm equently paid 31. notes which had turned mint to he forged ? • Mr. MANNING said the inforinatimmoi Was given in the Pa pers im the table. - Time Bank had .paid seventy-four of sad] notes; they found it totally impossible to detect them - altogether. MR. BUTT. Sir G. I - MATEIC*OTE ore.ented a Petition from R. G. Butt, a prisoner iii the King's Bench Prison, eoMplain ing of the sofrbrings he bad undergone froth the wilful and corrupt perjury of an individual, T. 1-Tarri,l..E , q., and•pray ing the benefit of the Habeas Corpus to allow him to obtain justice. On the qu , stion for the Petition' lying on the table. Mr. S. BOURNE opposed it', on the ground that the appli cation.should hnve been made to a Court of Law; and if it could not there be granted, it could not by the House. 'Si r M. W. RIDLEY and Mr,. M. -A. TAYLOR opposed the Motion, 7s chotaining' a grosi libel on a most upright 2nd Honourable Gentleman, by accusing him of wilful and cor rupt perjnrv. The Petition was then rejected. LOAN VII.OM THE BANK. Mr. JOHN SMITH begged to ask a feiv questions of the Right [lon. Gentleman opposite, which were very interesting to the public in general, at,a period when every - report was resorted to to injure the public credit, by depreciating the prices of the Funds. He would therefore ask thi! Right Honourable Gentleman whether it was intruded, as report ed, to raise any money by Loan, or in any other manner, in the current year; and whether there was any negoeia tint, on foot . for continuing the Loan from the Bank of three millions, instead of paying it off? • The third question trac very material, becausie•the public were N ery Much mis fed by a notion, that if the six millions were paid b\ Govern ment td tl4 Bank, that the amount of Bank notes would be so much lessened, arid the circulating. medium in that pro portion decreased ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER. expressed his astonishment that. any report of further money to be raised, by Irian or otherwise, this year, should he in circulation. In deed the amount funded lately was.so.cMisitierable as to ren der it almost impossible that Clovernment would have any. Ile- cessity to resort either to funding or a loan at - any period dur ing the next year. But, in hi - situation, he should not wish 'to say more on this part of the question. As to the three millions, a negociation was on foot, and nearly concluded Kith the Batik, to pay a moderate interest, by continuing that sum as a loan on Exchequer Bilk. In reply to the List question, he had to say, that Government had arranged with the Bank to make their payments of the six millions at various periods most convenient to bOth parties. No pay ments of this nature would confine or lessen the amount of Bank Notes iti circulation. The Bank Directors have the en tii e control over the amount of paper which they may deem it proper to put in circulation. 'rimy would no doubt act li berally in this respect, and accommodate their issues to the wants of the country. Mr. TIEII.NEY observed that it was evident that the Bank "never could possibly pay in Specie ; and, b--supposed this. wa* the intention, ' the Government did nut repay the six mil lions which had been advanced by the Bank; and with regard to the three' millions, it was equally evident, that if an immediate arrangement were not - made with the Batik, an interest of four per cent, would be payable on that sum. The CHANCELLOR of the FCCTIEOUETI. replied, that by a pro4ressively gradual p;4ment the six millions would, in due time; be repaid to the Banks and as he had already slated, there was an arrangement at this moment in pro . Kress between the Government and the Bank for taking the three millions on a continued Loan, and a low rate of In terest. DROIT OF ADNIMALTY. . • Sir .L MACkINTOSH said, he rose to give notice of a-mo tion for Monday, founded on what he bad' no doubt must be the general opinion, that due respect , had not been shown to the I-louse of Commons. As- long since as the 10th of Fe bruary, the _House h a d vote d an Address to the Prince Re gent, requesting that be would be pleased to order informa tion to be communicated concerning the Droits of Aaimiralty. Yet ready. tour mouths had passed without any compliance by his Majesty's servants with the order of their Sovereign. It seas, therefore, his intention, if the accounts were not pre sented forthwith. to' more that. an humble Address he pre sented to tke !'since Regent, apprising him of the neglect with_ which his commands had been treated. The aIANCELL(M . of the' EXCHEQUER explainedt that the delay half 1111avoidiibly arisen from the'neeessity of having eumniunications with several persons. But 'he hoped they prPsented in time to.save the lion. and Learned Gentleman the trouble of - waking his motion: LAND TAX ASSESSNiENTS. Mr. tiIIOUGHANI %visited to. learn frimi the Tlicht Hon. Gen] lern , u,opposite, whether anyurders had been issued from 11 K Tre a vtry to the fliNtriet S irvevorc, respecting a•se,,s , 'twit% uf the LaMd Tax? He parr;cuhirly wished to knot what :tinhorn Thai/ been given , fur a . certain Circular Letta whirl. had been sent tr , tnt a 'tiorvevor to an Asc. gcov in a dis tant district alluded to the Cuunty of Westruurlantq, 'which had been published in the newspapers? It was a di rection from this Officer-not to proceed in the Land Tax As sessments till further' ders. A§'the law stood, the Bill on this subject having been lately thrown ont, these officer§ take on themselves, hi contemPt of -the privileges of the House, and the rights •of Electors, to adopt a measure for disfrati.: chising voters at the eve of a - general - election; and.if the mdttcr were not satithsctorilv accounted fur, he :-.hould call foe the attendance of those officers at the bar. But he should take a shorter MAC than moviiig for the production of that letter by the persons who received it ; for if he weredrivett to this Necessity; it was clear, that before his object could be attained, the Parliament would he prorogued, and perhaps dissolved. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, if any such order had been given, there could he no doubt it most have been a general one. Mr. BROUGHAM was surprised that the Right Hon. Gen • tleman should stand up in his place and express any doubt whether he had issued such an order or nut. It was an outer that was probably:signed' by three Lords of the Treasury. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCH IiQUER replied that he did riot believe the Lords of the Treasury had signed any such order. Mr. LUSHINGTON added that he (lid not believe any such order had been issued from the 'Freasury. Mr. BROUGHAM then said he shOuld move, " That there he forthwith laid before the House an account of any order issued from the Lords . of the,Treasury to District - Surveyors, within the last three mouths, regarding the Assessment of the Land Tax," , Mr. P. MOORE observed, that nothing could he more ma terial in the event (la General Election than to see the vote inft he Land Tax.• If the Land nix Vote-book Were not forth coming; it. put it •intrt lire power of the, Returning Officer to return whatever Candidate he pleased. He hoped the House wOuldlOoli at this question with tine serious attention which belonged to it., • Mr. \VYNNE suggested that the, order in question might have proceeded trom tine 'Fax Office, and that tine motion would be more complete fry the addition of the Wards, " or .thin'Counnissioni-rs of Taxes."•• Mr. BROUGHAM said, he should avail himself of the stig gcstion -of his HOnouratdc Friend; and this wonlds.show ,on whom the blame rested. It was-remarkable that they had de layed, this operation till the last moment, that the . misehief mig'it he Without remedy. But next week he' sh,nuld take some step to secure to voters the pourer of exercising their elective-franchise. lithe country ware placed in such a pre dicament, Parliament must surely have a remedy int its own hanus. - PROTECTION OF WITNESSES. Mr. B. BATHURST, after a few observations on the ne cessity of the House protecting its witnesses, short-hand writers, and clerhs . ,,froni being examined on suhjects preju dicial to them , elves, moved the following Resolutions : " That all witnesses examined "before this House, or, any of its Committees, be entitled to the protection of the House, in respect to any tiring that way be sail by them in their evi dence."—Also, That no Clerk or Officer of this House, or Sliort-hand Writer, do give evidence elsewhere, in respect to the et•ulence be have 1 4'iven at the Bar• 6f this HOnse or in its Conio , ittees, without special leave Of the House." • After a Icw Words front Mr.. WYNNE, in . approlation of the Resolntions, and expressive of the thanks of. the flonse to the Right Honourable Gentleman for 'bringing the im portant. subject before it, the Resolutions were agreed to, Ite,n. dia. - . • NOUIIE4N Mr. M. A. TAYLOR. called the attention of the House to the inconvenience under which the Northern.,Cireuit laboured. The justice •of the - country was not administered there. It WAS the object of his !notion to have Assizes twice a year in the Counties of Niirthurnberland, Coinberland, Durham, Westmoreland, Lancashire, and Yorkshire; and the town of New , astle 7 upon-Tyue. These were n , ,tt the only places th'e kingdom where he could state, from comMumeations he haili,that the justice of the country was not administered. But be should confine himself to the Northern Circuit, in which the business was twice as heavy as on any other Cir cuit. The calendar at Lan caster hail often exceeded lOU prisoners,. many of them committed for the most serious crimes. It was nut to be expected that the bosineFs could be - gone throb h iu one Assize., It was admitted that the justice was pure when it was administered. • The Judges were all melt of the most unsullied character, and they were dis posed, but they had nut the power, to administer justice in these six counties. Baron Wood acknowledged to him that he more _than once was obliged to leave the Circuit when he was conscious that not half the business was done. This was 'productive of delay, and of very serious injury.' An ac tion was brought by a trieint of his fur 201. It Was not heard at his county town ; he had the venue changed in,the ensuing year to Lancastio.; - in order to gain his action, he was obliged to bring witnesses, and upon this sum of 201. the costs amounted at length to 2001. There was no kround'surely for this injustice. It was the duty of .the Secretary of State to look to it. The MinistersTslimild take the' rep'ort into - their consideration, - and assure the House, that no time should toe, lost in applying a remedy to the evil of szhicli he complaitied., The Address which he should move would not pledge the (,rows to any particular mode of proceeding. The Judges he believed to be indefatigable in their exertions. The More their exertions would be looked into,. the inorii entitled they would be found to merit the approbation of the cmiutry.— But the Judges were not able to get through the business. It was essential to justice that they- should have additional strength. It was easy to effect• it. Two •Commissioners should be invested with powers equal to those of the Judges, and should assist them on this circuit..- He then proceeded to notice the great influx of business to _the Court of King's Bench from other Courts, and the manner in which the Judges were also employed at their own Chambers, especially in cases arisiog..out of• the• King's 'Taxes ; a nd thought th e Cursitor Baron might be cl o th e d w ith high e r authmity, to r e . lieve Ahem from some pat t of the burthen. But, at ail events;„ it• must be admitted to be impossible that the same number of Judges could get through the business now as was required to perform it 100 years back. It was indispensible then that something should be done, though the Noble Lord had said, when the Committee was proposed, that.he could not be ex : pected to ju - inp.at one:. to a conclusion.' He certainly did not wish hint to act precipitately, tint when he had the mit hotity of Mr. Scarlett, who had travelled MI the Northern Circuit, and, in fact, of the whole country, 4hat without some justice woub(he entirely at a stand, heitoped the Exe cutive would attend to the subject. He concluded brinov ing, that an Humble Address be presented to the Prince Re gent, with a Copy of the Report of the Committee, request ing that he whale! he graciously'pleased to order that there be two Ass , zes, and two Courts of Nisi Pries each year, in the four Northern Counties. • Lord CASTLEREAGH said be shthild not enter into a dis cusSion upon the prirciple of the measure proposed by the Hon, Member, because he thought t h e subject. bad not y•et. Wen stiftiCiently investigated-- Several persons 'Connected With the jurisprudence of the country had been spoken to, but from the pressure of business they had not been able to give any opinion at present ; and it was indispensible that Ministers should see their way very clearly, before they adopt ed a measure, which, by the Hon. Member's own admission, could nut be confined to th.e nortkern counties, hut must affect the_ whole judicial proceedings of the country. He comxived that the House would not be willing to confide the important duty of ex'poUnding and adininistexing the law to persons not qualified, by acting as Judges in Westminster halls He admitted that it.was an evil for persons to he kept in confinement without trial fur so- long a period, but Mini sters were so full of other business as to be totally incapable of giving that serious and 'continued attention to the subject, which could alone le:id to a satisfactory result.--(Hear !) He could only account for I here.being but one Assize in the year,' in,the four 'Northern ,Counties, from the -presumption, that crimes were much less frequent there anciently than in other places; and though they had increased, _he did nut think it had been in the same ratio as in other places. It should not be forgotten, that an opinion bad been given be fore the Comtwittee, that the spirit of litigation would be in creased by m eking two 4‘ssizes in the year,- which would, in some measure, counterbalance the advantage to be derived from - the measure. These observations, however, were nut made against any change whatever, but merely to show the necessity of further inquiry; and it the Hon. Memberwould withdraw •his Motion, he could assure the House, that his majtsty's Ministers would turn their thoughts fo the subject with the view ofsubmitting some remedy in•the next SeSsion of Parliament. Mr. BROUGHAM also recommended the Hon. iNlemher to withdraw his motion, as he was sure, front the lateness - of he' Session, it would be utterly impossible to give that considera tion to the measure which its importancedemanded; besides, he thought it was', rather-the province of the'other Heosse to originate measures, the object of w hi c h was to M a k e a c h ange its the judicial establishments oif• the country. Mr. M. A. TAYLOR, in reply, observed,•.that the Lords could not originate any Money Bill, and as the.appointment of additional .tudges would necessarily inilve a pecuniary' grant, he apprehended he was quit•ii right in - submittiog this question to the House of Commons. , If the Noble Lotal • , vould: pledge himself that sut.h an attention shots:d he io id iii the subject beforg the locating of the n4xt Parliament as wooitilt II! eparc the wa- fir some decisive steps to be then taken, he shoot,' be tcillin to withdraw his motion; but he muNt de clare, that he never would agree to a proposition which did . „ not gibe two assizes in ille-yeat to three counties; the same as was enjoyed in other parts of the „kingdom. Lon" CAsTLEREAtift said the subject would he taken into coMidefition, but he could not take upon himself to say What cunelusion Would he come to. After a few further 'observations from Sir C. Morditunt, Nit. W. Smith, and My. Harvey, the. motion was,withdrawn. MESSAGE FROM THE LORDS. A Message from the Lords 'announced their Lordships' Ascent to the Nev Churches' Bill, With some amendinentsi to Which they desired the consent of the 'Commons. LOTTERIES. The CHANCELLOR of the EX.CHEaLTER moved the third reading Of the Lottery Bill. Mr. W. H. LY I TELTON repeated his former objections to the Bill, which he characterized as a shabby, disgraceful plan., for cheating the people out of their money, acid moved that the Bill he read a third time that day three months. Mr. PARNELL took that opportunity of seconding the efforts of his Hun. Friend, in the cause of sound policy. and good morais. He could not but think the conduct of the Right HMI. Omit!entail, was very inconsistent ; and:o'ol.l . 4li he should be sorry to hear of his. death, yet, it had struck him, in contemplating such au event, that it might, be re•• corded on his tomb, " that he was the patron of Bible Socie ties, the builder of New Churches, the encourager of Saving Banks, and the so pporter .of Lottrties." Mr. MORLAND and Mr. LOCKI - L opposed the Bill. Mr. Alderman WOOD spoke of the Lottery as leading to . . species of gambling in which he did not say the respectable Liceifsed Office keepers participated, lint which he had traced to two Offices, which he named. _He was ready to gii-e the names of the part , es concerned. among - whom would he fonnit one person who was high in office at the Long Room in the Custom-house. Mr. LyrrEuroN replied, that in his mind, excepting hangmen and informers, there was notlass Of men more de graded flout those.counected with this system.. Mr. Alderman WOOD explained. The House then d.vided— For the third reading then Against it l4 Majority The Bill was then read a third time, and pas•ed-. - IR:SH DISSENTING GLERGYMEN. Mr. PARNEI.!,, after describing thu situation of dissenting Clergymen in Ireland, and particularly the Catholic Clergy, and detailing-the inconveniencies to which tley were subject, for Want of a suitable provision for their residence, Obtained !cave to hrii i in a Bill to muOile Dissente►s in Ireland to pro vide rc•idences for their respective Ministers by voluntary subscription. It was afterwards brought up, and read a first time. . Mr. COURTENAY obtained leave to bring in a Bill for the Esoablishment of Paroaial Benefit Societies; and also a Bill for the further encouragement and protection of friendly . Societies.--Leave given. • Mr. IST FELT( IN gave notice, that on the Report, .to morrow, 91 the appropriation Bill, he should submit a mot On for leaving Mitthe• affidavit which . half-pay °dicers were re quired to tale on the receii4 of their pay. • The Nation-.I Ileht .ounnissioners' Bill was read'a third time, and priced.—Adjourued.
